Facts About Common Stock

 Represents ownership
 Ownership implies control
 Stockholders elect directors
 Directors elect management
 Management’s goal: Maximize the stock
price

Intrinsic Value and Stock Price

 Outside investors, corporate insiders, and


analysts use a variety of approaches to estimate
a stock’s intrinsic value (P̂0 ).
 In equilibrium we assume that a stock’s price
equals its intrinsic value.
• Outsiders estimate intrinsic value to help
determine which stocks are attractive to buy
and/or sell.
• Stocks with a price below (above) its intrinsic
value are undervalued (overvalued).

Discounted Dividend Model

 Value of a stock is the present value of the


future dividends expected to be generated by
the stock.

Constant Growth Stock

 A stock whose dividends are expected to grow


forever at a constant rate, g.
D1 = D0(1 + g)1
D2 = D0(1 + g)2
Dt = D0(1 + g)t
 If g is constant, the discounted dividend formula
converges to:
D 0 (1  g) D1
P̂0  
rs  g rs  g

What happens if g > rs?

 If g > rs, the constant growth formula leads to a


negative stock price, which does not make
sense.

 The constant growth model can be used only if:


• rs > g
• g is expected to be constant forever.

Use the SML to Calculate the Required
Rate of Return (rs)

 If rRF = 3%, rM = 8%, and b = 1.2, what is the


required rate of return on the firm’s stock?

rs = rRF + (rM – rRF)b


= 3% + (8% – 3%)1.2
= 9%

What is the stock’s expected value, one year from now?

 D1 will have been paid out already. So, expected


P1 is the present value (as of Year 1) of D2, D3,
D4, etc.

Find Expected Dividend Yield, Capital Gains Yield, and Total
Return During First Year

 Dividend yield
= D1/P0 = $2.08/$41.60 = 5.0%
 Capital gains yield
= (P1 – P0)/P0
= ($43.26 – $41.60)/$41.60 = 4.0%
 Total return (rs)
= Dividend yield + Capital gains yield
= 5.0% + 4.0% = 9.0%

Supernormal Growth

 What if g = 30% for 1 yr, 20% for 1 yr, and


10% for 1 yr before achieving long-run growth
of 4%?
• Can no longer use just the constant growth
model to find stock value.
• However, the growth does become constant after
3 years.

Find Expected Dividend and Capital Gains Yields During the
First and Fourth Years

 Dividend yield (first year)


= $2.60/$62.78 = 4.14%

 Capital gains yield (first year)


= 9.00% – 4.14% = 4.86%

 During nonconstant growth, dividend yield and


capital gains yield are not constant, and capital
gains yield ≠ g.

 After t = 3, the stock has constant growth and


dividend yield = 5%, while capital gains yield = 4%.

Find Expected Dividend and Capital Gains Yields During the
First and Fourth Years

 Dividend yield (first year)


= $2.00/$37.19 = 5.38%

 Capital gains yield (first year)


= 9.00% – 5.38% = 3.62%

 After t = 3, the stock has constant


growth and dividend yield = 5%, while
capital gains yield = 4%.

If the stock was expected to have negative growth (g = -4%),
would anyone buy the stock, and what is its value?

 Yes. Even though the dividends are declining,


the stock is still producing cash flows and
therefore has positive value.

Find Expected Annual Dividend and Capital Gains Yields

 Capital gains yield


= g = -4.00%

 Dividend yield
= 9.00% – (-4.00%) = 13.00%

 Since the stock is experiencing constant growth,


dividend yield and capital gains yield are
constant. Dividend yield is sufficiently large
(13%) to offset negative capital gains.

Corporate Valuation Model

 Also called the free cash flow method. Suggests


the value of the entire firm equals the present
value of the firm’s free cash flows (which is the
MV of its operations) plus the market value of
its non-operating assets.
 Remember, free cash flow is the firm’s after-tax
operating income less the net capital
investment.

Applying the Corporate Valuation Model

 Find the market value (MV) of the firm’s


operations, by finding the PV of the firm’s future
FCFs.

 Add the market value of the firm’s non-


operating assets.

 Subtract MV of firm’s debt and preferred stock


to get MV of common stock.

 Divide MV of common stock by the number of


shares outstanding to get intrinsic stock price
(value).

Issues Regarding the Corporate Valuation Model

 Often preferred to the discounted dividend


model, especially when considering number of
firms that don’t pay dividends or when
dividends are hard to forecast.

 Similar to discounted dividend model, assumes


at some point free cash flow will grow at a
constant rate.

 Horizon value (HVN) represents value of firm’s


operations at the point that growth becomes
constant.

Firm Multiples Method

 Analysts often use the following multiples to


value stocks.
• P/E
• P/CF
• P/Sales
 EXAMPLE: Based on comparable firms,
estimate the appropriate P/E. Multiply this by
expected earnings to back out an estimate of
the stock price.
 Enterprise-Based Multiples
• EV/EBITDA

Preferred Stock

Hybrid security

Like bonds, preferred stockholders receive a fixed


dividend that must be paid before dividends are paid to
common stockholders.

However, companies can omit preferred dividend


payments without fear of pushing the firm into
bankruptcy.
